"Senate -- Coming Soon: Environment Panel's Big Makeover" [1]

"The Senate's oddest couple is about to break up.

Back in 2007, Sens. Barbara Boxer and Jim Inhofe were paired for the first time as their parties' leaders on the Senate Environment and Public Works Committee. They represent nearly perfect opposites.

She's a liberal Democrat born in Brooklyn and representing California, with a passion for combating climate change. He's an oil patch Republican from Oklahoma who penned a book calling global warming 'the greatest hoax.'"
